My new pick up

[Tee504la]

Only had her for 3 days now and I basically got her for free. She is a good 7.5" and now holding eggs. Now I have a question for you guys... should I let my Texas spawn with her or my Synspilum because they are the biggest males I have that can spawn with her.View attachment 1029130View attachment 1029133View attachment 1029134

That's good to hear, my fader and Texas fry has been swimming for 3 days now and looks like he fertilized a good amount of them.

The crazy thing about this... she laid Saturday on the 9th the eggs hatched yesterday morning...wtf is going on with that because my rose queen eggs do the same. Is it because of the food I'm feeding the parents for the eggs to hatch faster?
